|
184 | |
|
|
185 | Similar to C<async>, but uses a coroutine pool, so you should not call |
|
|
186 | terminate or join (although you are allowed to), and you get a coroutine |
|
|
187 | that might have executed other code already (which can be good or bad :). |
|
|
188 | |
|
|
189 | Also, the block is executed in an C<eval> context and a warning will be |
|
|
190 | issued in case of an exception instead of terminating the program, as |
|
|
191 | C<async> does. As the coroutine is being reused, stuff like C<on_destroy> |
|
|
192 | will not work in the expected way, unless you call terminate or cancel, |
|
|
193 | which somehow defeats the purpose of pooling. |
|
|
194 | |
|
|
195 | The priority will be reset to C<0> after each job, tracing will be |
|
|
196 | disabled, the description will be reset and the default output filehandle |
|
|
197 | gets restored, so you can change alkl these. Otherwise the coroutine will |
|
|
198 | be re-used "as-is": most notably if you change other per-coroutine global |
|
|
199 | stuff such as C<$/> you need to revert that change, which is most simply |
|
|
200 | done by using local as in C< local $/ >. |
|
|
201 | |
|
|
202 | The pool size is limited to 8 idle coroutines (this can be adjusted by |
|
|
203 | changing $Coro::POOL_SIZE), and there can be as many non-idle coros as |
|
|
204 | required. |
|
|
205 | |
|
|
206 | If you are concerned about pooled coroutines growing a lot because a |
|
|
207 | single C<async_pool> used a lot of stackspace you can e.g. C<async_pool |
|
|
208 | { terminate }> once per second or so to slowly replenish the pool. In |
|
|
209 | addition to that, when the stacks used by a handler grows larger than 16kb |
|
|
210 | (adjustable with $Coro::POOL_RSS) it will also exit. |
